Abstract

The Passive System Simulation Facility (FASSIP) loop is an experimental test facility for a passive cooling system to recover the residual heat from decay produced by the reactor core during accident conditions. The Heating Tank Section (HTS) is one of the components of the FASSIP 03 NT facility. This component is equipped with a heat exchanger, 3 types of heat exchangers can be applied to HTS. Namely heat exchangers of the Straight Pipe Heat Exchanger (SPHE) type, the Straight Pipe Fins Heat Exchanger (SPFHE) type, and the Helical Pipe Heat Exchanger (HPHE) type. A modification was made to increase the efficiency of HTS, namely replacing the electric heater on the HTS from a ceramic band heater type to an immersion heater type. With this modification, it is necessary to know the performance of the heat exchanger on HTS and its speed in reaching operational temperature. The HPHE-type heat exchanger is more efficient than the SPHE-type and SPFHE-type heat exchangers. The HPHE-type heat exchanger has a much larger length of 5.5 m, so the thermal resistance (Rth) is very small, namely 0.003926 ℃/W. To reach the working fluid temperature in the range of 50 – 90 ℃, the HPHE-type heat exchanger requires 35 – 86 minutes.

Abstract

Passive safety systems have garnered significant attention, particularly in situations where active systems fail. The comprehension of natural circulation phenomena plays a vital role in the advancement of passive cooling systems in nuclear power plants. The objective of this study is to examine the flow patterns under steady state conditions and assess the Grashof number. The experimental approach involved maintaining temperature differences of 60°C, 70°C, 80°C, and 90°C for a duration of 3 hours, with 3 replications. Alterations in temperature have an impact on the physical properties of water, such as density, viscosity, and specific heat. The calculations indicate that the minimum Grashof number occurs at 60°C (2.49×1012), while the maximum is observed at 90°C (9.42×1012), with an R2 value of 0.96533. Turbulent flow patterns were observed during each temperature fluctuation, which aligns with previous research on the Ress value of Grm/NG.
